the aquarium is awesome, but it's only worth it when we had a buy 1 get 1 free coupon!!

The Aquarium was pretty cool. If nothing else, the size of the place, and therefore the time you will spend there, make it worth the price. I wouldn't want to spend $17 for something that took less than an hour, but I think we spent 3 or 4 hours there when we went.

Of course, it also helps if you like animals. :hobbes:

Personally, I hate Dallas. It just feels... I don't know... soulless. (Does that make sense?) It's like they try too hard to be a "cutting-edge" city. Too many freeways and all the highrises start to look the same after you've been there a while. It feels very fake to me. The last few times I visited, I couldn't wait to leave! On the other hand, Kansas City (in my opinion) is the coolest nearby major city that we've got. It has the rustic, old midwestern city feel, yet it has elements of modernity.
